      Hi,

      I wanted to send a notification to modules from a shell script.
      How can I send notifications to magicmirror modules from external application or script?

      Please help me?

        u have to write some additional communications process.

        in one of my implementations, i write a file in the outside script, and my MM modules looks for the file and then processes it… which then sends notifications to other modules…
        you could also use tcp/ip sockets, or websockets, or … there is no single builtin way

          MMM-NotificationTrigger has HTTP endpoint to receive message. So if your external app can touch the endpoint, It can convert it to MagicMirror notification.

          Example of using IFTTT.
